Our team

Created by Louis Gay in 1961, the BIOPARC of Doué la Fontaine is nowadays directed by Pierre and François Gay, son and grandson of the founder.

At their side, a dedicated team, made of various professions such as animal attendants, youth coordinators, veterinaries, gardeners, technical agents, hosts, sales representatives, and science coordinators, work together to accommodate the animals’ well-being as well the visitors’ enjoyment.
